11. I worked for Clear Channel Radio

about 8-9 years ago. I absolutely couldn't take it and quit after 6 months. Wait, now I remember, it was a little over 10 years ago. I remember watching 9/11 w/my husband before we went to work. I worked with two of the biggest assholes ever. They went on a disgusting rant about "ragheads" and other lovely name calling. These two invented liquid lunches!

The company is also beyond sexist. The shorter your skirt, the better. Amazed I got hired. I sure never dressed like the proverbial stereotype of a librarian, but I was far from Hooterville. Plus I was about 50 - shock that they let THAT pass!

I went to a rah-rah sales mtg at the regional office in San Diego and I've never seen so many bimbos in one place. I knew right then that this job was going to be history and I quit not long after. By far the most uncomfortable I ever felt at a job. When I saw the title of this thread I KNEW it had to be Clear Channel! I bet the newspapers in Portland have received some interesting letters and emails.
